The external components selection is much simple in D-CAP™ mode.
1. Choose inductor. This section is the same as the current mode. Please refer to the instructions in the
Current Mode Operation section.
2. Choose output capacitor(s).Organic semiconductor capacitor(s) or specialty polymer capacitor(s) are
recommended. Determine ESR to meet required ripple voltage above. A quick approximation is shown in
Equation 25 .
Primary power dissipation of TPS51116 is generated from VTT regulator. VTT current flow in both source and
sink directions generate power dissipation from the part. In the source phase, potential difference between
VLDOIN and VTT times VTT current becomes the power dissipation, W
DSRC
.
In this case, if VLDOIN is connected to an alternative power supply lower than VDDQ voltage, power loss can be
decreased.
For the sink phase, VTT voltage is applied across the internal LDO regulator, and the power dissipation, W
DSNK
,
is calculated by Equation 27 :
Since this device does not sink AND source the current at the same time and I
VTT
varies rapidly with time, actual
power dissipation need to be considered for thermal design is an average of above value. Another power
consumption is the current used for internal control circuitry from V5IN supply and VLDOIN supply. V5IN
supports both the internal circuit and external MOSFETs drive current. The former current is in the VLDOIN
supply can be estimated as 1.5 mA or less at normal operational conditions.
These powers need to be effectively dissipated from the package. Maximum power dissipation allowed to the
package is calculated by Equation 28 ,
